Vans A2Z.com Verdict
Relay has come of age with this latest generation. The cab is well designed, engine choice is good, there’s a wide range of models available and the Ready to Run conversions are extensive to say the least.

The result of a long-standing joint-development deal between PSA Peugeot Citroën and Fiat, the current generation front-wheel drive Relay has been with us since the end of 2006. The panel van has a choice of three wheelbases, four body lengths, three roof heights and four gross vehicle weights; 3.0, 3.3, 3.5 and 4.0 tonnes. The result is a load volume spread of 8.0m3 to 17.0m3 and payloads ranging from 1,155kg to 1,995kg. Access to the van’s load area is via twin, unglazed side-hinged doors and a sliding nearside door comes as standard.

Engine choice runs to three; two 2.2-litres and a 3.0-litre. The 2.2-litre can be had at either 100hp or 120hp while the 3-litre is capable of 160hp. Peak torque figures are 250Nm and 320Nm for the 2.2s and a whopping 400Nm for the big powerplant.

All Relays benefit from Citroën’s standard two-years/unlimited mileage or three-years/100,000 miles mechanical warranty. Service intervals are set up to 25,000 miles, dependent on the duty cycle.
